This group is for artists working in painting - oil and acrylic (watercolor welcome). We will meet to share ideas, constructively critique one another's works, and to paint! We'll scout locations to organize plein air sessions, cityscape and landscape, and organize studio sessions for still life. I believe that you make the most progress as an artist when you share the creative experience with other skilled artists. See ya soon!

Wednesday afternoon studio also requires an RSVP. The Sunday afternoon, Monday evening and Thursday evening  studios are first come/first served …

All who seek to create from nature are welcome, whatever your art, whether you write, draw, paint, sculpt, craft, photograph, dance, philosophize, or meditate for inspiration. P …

This group is for people of all ages who have any type of eating disorder, or for those who are currently in recovery, to give and receive support from others who really understand. Additionally, because eating disorders can often be isolating, this group is also a "social" group in which …
